B&R X20IF1086-2

POWERLINK for real-time Ethernet communication 100 Base-FX port Poll response chaining Dynamic Node Allocation (DNA) The interface module is used for application-specific expansion of the X20 controllers. It is equipped with a POWERLINK interface. This interface uses a 100 Base-FX port. The POWERLINK connection is made using 62.5/125 μm or 50/125 µm fiber optic multimode cable with a duplex LC connection. The module and network status is indicated using LEDs.
